Stochastic Differential Equations
This parallels the main existence/uniqueness result for ordinary differential equations, or more generally finite systems of ordinary differential equations x0(t) = F(x(t)); (7) which asserts that unique solutions exist for each initial value x(0) provided the function F is uniformly Lipschitz. Without the hypothesis that the function Fis ...

galton.uchicago.eduMARKOV CHAINS: BASIC THEORY 3 Definition 2. A nonnegative matrix is a matrix with nonnegative entries. A stochastic matrix is a square nonnegative matrix all of whose row sums are 1. A substochastic matrix is a square nonnegative matrix all of whose row sums are 1.
CONVERGENCE RATES OF MARKOV CHAINS

ONE-DIMENSIONAL RANDOM WALKS
galton.uchicago.edupost- y process is just an independent simple random walk started at y. But (10) (with the roles of x,y reversed) implies that this random walk must eventually visit x. When this happens, the random walk restarts again, so it will go back to y, and so on. Thus, by an easy induction argu-ment (see Corollary 14 below): Theorem 4.
CONDITIONAL EXPECTATION AND MARTINGALES
galton.uchicago.educonditional expectations behave like ordinary expectations, with random quantities that are functions of the conditioning random variable being treated as constants.2 Let Y be a random variable, vector, or object valued in a measurable space, and let X be an integrable random variable (that is, a random variable with EjXj˙1).
BROWNIAN MOTION - Department of Statistics
galton.uchicago.eduMany stochastic processes behave, at least for long stretches of time, like random walks with small but frequent jumps. The argument above suggests that such processes will look, at least approximately, and on the appropriate time scale, like Brownian motion. Second, it suggests that many important “statistics” of the random walk will have lim-
